Forgotten Roots

Intro - C  F  Am  G

[Verse 1]

C  F - Each Line

Taken from the land so wild

Lost and lonely broken child

Far from home and far from truth

Forgot my roots forgot my youth

[Verse 2]

C  F - Each Line

They tried to change my soul and face

To wipe away my sacred place

                            G

Silent tears in darkest night

A stolen dream a broken light

[Chorus]

Am                                   C

Where's my home where's my heart

Am - G                          C

Torn away and torn apart

Am                               C

Hold me close in the dark

                 G           F             C

Guide this lost and lonely spark

[Verse 3]

C F - Each Line

Stories whispered in the wind

Songs of ancestors the kin

Echoes faint but in my core

Calling me to what came before

[Bridge]

           Am         G        C

In the shadows of my days

                    Am         G          C

Memories of old they always stay

F                                      Am

A heritage they couldn't kill

F                                      G

A spirit fighting strong and still

[Chorus]

Am                                   C

Where's my home where's my heart

Am - G                          C

Torn away and torn apart

Am                               C

Hold me close in the dark

                 G           F             C

Guide this lost and lonely spark
